Kael Anderson lost his future mate and luna, Stephanie, during a rogue attack. Stephanie's death left his entire pack in mourning; her death anniversary was even declared a pack holiday.

Five years later, Kael discovers that Stephanie's younger sister Astrid is his mate. But how can that be? Wasn't Stephanie supposed to be his mate? And would his pack even accept Astrid as his mate and Luna-many have always blamed Astrid for Stephanie's death, because Stephanie died trying to save Astrid.

For her part, Astrid has lived in the shadow of her beautiful older sister for years. She knows very well that pack members and her parents wish that it was Astrid that died that day instead of Stephanie. Astrid had looked forward to the day that she would meet her mate and finally feel important to someone.

Discovering that her mate is Kael is Astrid's worst nightmare, especially when Kael reacts poorly to the discovery. Astrid decides that she is unwilling to live in Stephanie's shadow any longer. She will not spend the rest of her life with a mate who wishes she was someone else. She rejects Kael, who all too quickly accepts the rejection.

Soon afterwards, horrifying truths come out and Kael immediately regrets letting Astrid go. He sets out to get Astrid back and right the wrongs that have been done. But is it too late? Will Astrid find love with Kael, or with someone else?

I'm going to be the Beta of the West Mountain Pack.


Goddess… No matter how hard I've worked over the past few months, I never expected this. And honestly, I didn't think I deserved it.


High school Joey? He was lazy, rude, and a bully. But now, now I'm going to be Beta. Holy Goddess.


If the situation weren't so serious, I'd be jumping up and down. But unfortunately, I had a job to do.


The first wolf to step up to the microphone was Olivia Grace.


 "My question is for Alpha Randall. How could you let everything get so out of hand? Why didn't you do anything?"


Randall took a deep breath, struggling against the Alpha command. But it was useless, he had no choice but to answer.


 "Luna Jane caused Margie to miscarry before Stephanie was born. She felt guilty afterward and tried to make it up to Margie. That worked for a while… but then Margie started threatening to report her to the Werewolf Council.


I love this pack but I love Jane more. Much more."
